Amazon.com Review

Bounty Hunter's Tracker IV detector offers the excitement and profit of metal detecting at an accessible price, making it ideal for those just getting started. With a fully submersible, 8-inch Bounty D-Tech search coil, the Tracker IV features three different operating modes to help you hit pay dirt. Motion all-metals mode responds to any metals you sweep over, full discrimination mode rejects iron and other trash items, and tone discrimination alerts you with one or two audio pitches for different types of metals. The Tracker IV does not have the LCD that many of Bounty Hunter's other models boast, featuring instead a large Sensitivity Meter. Ground Trac, a feature that automatically balances the machine to the soil conditions, makes the Tracker IV a tremendous value. Users will also enjoy Bounty Hunter's comprehensive, easy-to-understand online tutorial and downloadable manual at www.detecting.com. The Tracker IV runs off of two 9-volt alkaline batteries and boasts a five-year limited warranty. --Ariel Meadow Stallings

A Great Deal - Mark Jones, May 21, 2008

I've wanted one of these things all my life. I don't even remember how I landed on this one-but it's a heck of a good little machine for less than a hundred bucks (I got it on sale on Amazon-and the best price anywhere that I found). I've found a hoe and a pretty cool pocket knife from the sixties. I found a well tarnished 1999 quarter. And, I've found lots of nails, wires, pop tops and beer cans. I agree with the reviews that say forget the discriminator-leave the thing wide open and dig everything. It's finding stuff at least six inches down sometimes-and from what I hear that's closer to the more expensive models. I can't wait to go to a known historical area and really work it out. There's a definite bang for the buck, and just a heck of a lot of fun in this sweet deal of a machine. For the money, there's just no downside to it.

No item, but excellent seller. - pweathrb, May 20, 2008

Because of a computer glitch this item was listed as a detector, not a detector book. The ad was submitted by Woody's Books ( an online bookstore which deals only in books.) I attempted to purchase the detector and I was informed that the item was a mistake and my money was refunded. I am writing this review not about the detector but about the seller, Woody's Books. I must say that I was more impressed with my dealing with April at Woody's Books than any seller that I have ever dealt with in my many years of buying and selling on eBay. I was very satisfied with my transaction and I can assure you that you will be happy with any purchase you make from this seller. They get the highest possible recommendation that I am able to give.

Good metal detector - Franklin James, May 20, 2008

I purchased this to locate just brass casings and this unit does quite well at sorting it out.

Great beginner metal detector - Gold Digger, Apr 27, 2008

This is a really good inexpensive way to try metal detecting. I've been using it in the "all metal" mode which is an easy way to get started. I have used it a few times and find it to be quite sensitive. So far I've found coins, a few pieces of cheap jewelry, and a lot of trash items (bottle caps, hair pins, foil...) The trash can be filtered out easily by adjusting the knobs and switch on the console. I was just in a hurry to use it and didn't want to miss anything. One thing it doesn't seem to detect very well is very small gold chains without pendants. This might be true of all metal detectors. I don't know because this is the only one I've ever used. It uses two 9v batteries which can be expensive, but I picked up an inexpensive pair of headphones which seem to increase the battery life. Overall I'm very satisfied with my purchase and would recommend this product to anybody that wanted to give metal detecting a try without investing too much.
